Abhay Tiwari, who paid toll at Vashi booth, said, "Its good that digital facility is being set up here to collect the levy, but I feel that Rs 500 notes should continue to be accepted at toll booths till December 30. Government changing its decisions so frequently is not good for people."

As banks would be closed tomorrow, several people made a beeline to withdraw the cash at banks and ATMs.

"Banks would be closed tomorrow and I dont know whether the ATMs would be operational. I want at least Rs 10,000 today and I hope bank would not run out of money when my turn comes," Darshan Sampat from neighbouring Thane city said, while waiting in a queue outside the Bank of Baroda.

However, a Mumbai resident Saurabh Srivastava expressed satisfaction that his bank was allowing to withdraw full permissible limit of Rs 24,000.

"Standing in queue again, 3rd time in last 3 weeks. Thankfully they are allowing full 24K withdrawal," he tweeted.

Sushila Kothari, a homemaker from Parel area said, "Now it does not bother me anymore. Now I am used to standing in bank and ATM queues. But the government should have continued the facility of exchange the money." PTI APM NP NM MKJ
